THE JOURNEY OF LIFE


Episode 17

The sound of Mrs Alabi hitting the table and praying,  woke Tolani. She looked at the time, it was 7:30am. “Ahhh, today is Sunday ” She  said as she tapped Ibukun to wake up.

“What is going on? It's unusual to wake up late on Sunday's for God sake” She thoughts as she walked towards the sitting room. “What? Where is mummy and everybody? ” She asked but there was no response. Then, she realized she was the only one in the sitting room.

She walked towards silver room to wake her. “Aunty silver ” she said as she knocked. “Who be that” Silver asked. “Arggghhh, aunty silver and her horrible language. I wonder why mummy like Cotonue girls” She mummured and replied “ It's Tolani”. “Aunty Tolani I no know”She said as she stood up to open the door.

“Please, do not call me aunty, Tolani is okay” she said. Silver always find it difficult to communicate with Tolani and her siblings because they don't always understand her. It's only mama and mummy that understood her and mama is not around to make her understand.

“Chai see what oyinbo(English) has caused” Miss Abosede said as she paused to make them laugh small.

“Did mummy come to your room today?  Tolani asked as she used her hands to demonstrate, for her to understand. “No ” Silver replied as she waved her hand. “Okay ” She said as she closed the door.

She was almost at the entrance of the room, when she heard the voice of someone praying. She knew it was her mom and she walked towards her room

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation.

I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
